Reviews

"Rounded off by a comprehensive index, this volume is an invaluable guide to researching Cork Ancestors"

"For anyone with Cork Ancestors this book is a must because of its clear focus on a specific county and references to local materials. This book also has value for those still seeking a place of origin in Ireland because the descriptions are very clear on how and why the records were created and how they can be used"

"..readers would expect to find more detailed information on Cork sources in a book of this type. This they get in abundance. It reads very well, gives sound advice on most areas of research, highlights many useful sources and, above all, shows how much efficient research can be done within Cork itself"
